Untitiled 2

It was a blue.
Dark and rich. With 2 streaks of red and gold.
Running across the surface.
Just above the head.
A 2-inch gap between the red and the gold.
The thick coloured threads
neatly woven.
Moving in and out. In and out. In and out.
Neatly. In order. Arranged. Correct. Almost perfect.
A thin strip at the back of the head.
Knotted. Tight.
Not loose.
To fit the head. Correctly. Almost perfectly.
It is complete with the shade. Yes the shade.
At the front.
With an embellishment of a pawn in red.
The pawn in red. Red? Why red?
Pawn in red.
Pawn.
The red pawn, crested on the blue shade.
Yes. The shade.
Shielding the eyes.
Sheltering. Blocking. Screening.
I try to look up.
To see and stare.
To see.
But the shade. Almost guarding. Almost.
